I hate using the word "cheap" to head off this article, since that conjures up images of sleazy motels off some highway. But these budget choices are all little gems on the island of Santorini, letting you really relax during your stay on this Greek island - you won't be worrying about how much it's costing you.

This cheerful and lively hotel is located at Perissa Beach, steps from the sand. Since Perissa is a nightlife hotspot, the hotel probably has the most appeal for the younger groups, but older budget-conscious travelers may appreciate the rooms starting at 28 Euros and up.

This small hotel offers a handful of rooms in a garden setting. In high season, there's a minimum two-week stay, so it's not for everyone.
